Festival Voices, musical director Greg Batsleer, is a group which describes itself thus, 'We make bold, collaborative choral music, performing to new audiences in unexpected venues'. For the group's Session at Ugly Duck, a warehouse space at 47/49 Tanner Street, London, SE1 3PL, on 25 November 2017 they will be music by Arvo Pärt, Frank Martin and Purcell, collaborating with a mime artist, a lighting designer and an electronic music producer.
Pärt’s Magnificat and The Woman with the Alabaster Box will be illuminated by bespoke lighting design from Zoe Spurr, Martin’s Five Songs of Ariel will be embodied by Paris-based mime artist Jason Ribes, and Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas is rescored with electronic music by producer and DJ Nico Bentley and the Pencil Collective.
